20% Price Increase!!!

Today I was buying Blue Life Protection Formula for my three small dogs. They have eaten this food their entire lives. SURPRISE! The Six pound bag is now a FIVE pound bag at the same price, meaning we are paying around seventeen percent more. I am beyond angry that they would pull a chicken move like this. I will be looking for a comparable quality dog food to replace Blue.

My puppy loves these kebble more than the other ones we have gotten him which is a good thing. These kebbles are a lot smaller and so I think that's a reason why he loves these more. He is able to eat these with no additional mix to it and I'm so happy we found these dog food. Highly recommend!

I need small breed dog food for mine bc he's older and he needs the smaller kibbles. Since starting him on this brand, he's gained 2 lbs!!! Which makes me super happy. Would recommend. I've read some bad things about blue buffalo but my dog is healthy.

Good for the tummy

I've been using blue buffalo ever since I could feed her regular dog food. My Shiny tau was pretty sick with intestinal problems for the first 4-6 months, she was at the vets office almost weekly and was on special diet of chicken and rice only, no treats, no dog food. Then slowly she was able to tolerate dog food and after getting her off special pro biotic food we put her on blue buffalo puppy food and found that finally we could get her on something that didn't have to be bought at the vets office. She's had no problem with blue buffalo and would never stray from feeding her this, since she tolerates it without issues.

Gives more energy!

I just switched my small breed dogs from Purina One to Blue Buffalo Small Breed Adult within the last month. I have three senior dogs and two young adults. I've seen a h7ge change in my seniors! They are more active than they have been in years. My 14 year old actually plays with toys now. All the dogs seem to feel good and their coats are beautiful. I'm getting a puppy this weekend and he's going on the lamb and oatmeal blue puppy food.

It's really tiny little bites

I have Yorki and whenever we feed him some other brand or other flavor of this food his stomach always reacts really bad to it. BUT after trying million of different foods, we found one the best one. It's really also depends on the dog. Because I'm sure not all Yorki's are going to like it, or maybe even some dogs might be allergic to it. You never know. But I definitely recommend to try.

I switched from Royal

I switched from Royal Canin to Blue Buffalo for my senior Shiba Inu a few years back and haven't regretted it once. Jackie loves to gobble down the Blue Buffalo kibble, doing a wiggly little butt dance as soon as he sees it coming. With the other brands he wasn't as excited for meal time and often left kibble sitting in his bowl till the next feeding time. The kibble itself is also so much easier for him to eat, especially as he gets on in years. I love that its cheaper than the higher end brands but just as healthy, full of all the nutrient Jackie needs without any fillers or meals. Best band brand you can buy for your dog without breaking the bank but also making sure they have everything they need.

My fur baby loves Blue Buffalo! He unfortunately has a very weak stomach and this is the only brand he can tolerate. It is a little pricey BUT is worth every penny because not only does he and his stomach approve, but I believe it's what has helped keep him so healthy and youthful in his 10+ years.

This is the one brand of food my dog will actually eat. He is very picky and turns his nose up at most dry foods, but this he gobbles up as soon as it is in front of him. Smaller pieces which makes it easier for him to eat since he is between 5 and 8 pounds.

She loves it!

My fur baby is very funny with food. Though she prefers wet food this is the only dry food she will actually eat and not give us blank stares. Other foods she will pick out pieces and throw on the floor. She loves the Blue Buffalo for small breeds
